Re: PS-42Q97HD, not starting every time HELP !!!!

Try testing before you bin the Zener diode and a replacement need to be 1/2w 30v. just getting a little hot does not make it faulty, most run a little hot .the more likely fault is with CB804 33uf 50v cap that this diode is in running with, overloading the Zener

Guys, you are amazing !!!
So far so good !
Diode and cap (CB804) has been changed and all voltages looks perfect now, 18V, 12V, Va.
Need to keep the TV on for an hour or two to be 100% sure.
I'll let you know later.
Thanks a lot !!!

Please dont say you got the parts from maplins,if you did it wont last the day out. The caps need to be low ESR for them to work correctly and that Zener needs to be min 1/2w
